St. Kilda and the Adelaide Crows faced off last night in the AFL, which produced a scary collision between Nick Riewoldt and Brodie Smith.

Smith, who was the ball-carrier, was able to get off the field under his own power and go to the locker room. Riewoldt, who delivered the hit, had to be carted off the field and was held in the hospital over night although he was cleared of any structural damage.
